</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">The condition itself does not cause <a href="http://www.root2tip.com/product_info.php?cPath=30_31&products_id=48">hair-loss,</a> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">However the constant rubbing, <a href="http://www.root2tip.com/product_info.php?cPath=30_32&products_id=66">itching</a> and scratching of the hair can begin to thin around the edges. If left untreated the scaling or flakes really build up and when they lift up, in my experience that can cause hair-loss!!</span><br />

It can come and go with flare ups occurring during the winter months when it is cooler and drier. It can also flare up in association with stress and anxiety,</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">such as that due to exams in school, deadlines at work</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"> or hormonal changes, , sales quotas to meet, or financial difficulties.</span><br />

<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><i style="background-color: #d5a6bd;">If your hair is long enough, braid the hair in 4 loose sections.

<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><i style="background-color: #d5a6bd;">Dilute 1oz of the shampoo in a cup of water, this will make it easier to apply to the scalp.</i></b></span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><i style="background-color: #d5a6bd;">Pour the diluted shampoo over the scalp and gently massage in, do Not Scratch, you don't want to cut your scalp.</i></b></span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><i style="background-color: #d5a6bd;">Leave the shampoo on the scalp for 5-8 minutes, it needs time to penetrate the flakes.</i></b></span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><i style="background-color: #d5a6bd;">Proceed to wash out, loosening 1 braid at a time to wash away any flakes that may have come away and traveled down into your braided hair.</i></b></span></li>
</ul><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><i>Finally follow up with a Deep Conditioning treatment, at least 1 x a week!</i></b></span></div></div><div><b><br />

"Hair fibre, is basically a protein and hence is susceptible to damage due to heat and UV rays, just like your skin.<br />
<br />
The sun's rays can work just like a too-hot hair dryer. So, the main advice about hair care that can help lower summer hair damage is to avoid using a hot hair dryer too often whilst its the summer season!<br />
<br />
"If you have long hair wear it up in knots, braids or buns. Avoid leaving your hair open when out in the sun!<br />
<br />
Ensure you hair is well moisturised and conditioned prior to the leaving the house on a sunny day. The heat from the sun causes your hair to lose moisture fast!<br />
<br />
Simple tips and a little attention paid to the 'crowning glory' can help you maintain your luscious mane even during the scorching heat this summer.</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you are looking for a cheapie but naturally inspired conditioner to co-wash with, then I recommend the Tresemme Naturals line:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It seems the big companies are catching onto the fact that less really is more, and we really do not need to have products that are laden down with silicones and cheap fillers for them to be effective!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ok, so this conditioner is not <i>100% Natural</i> but at the price its sold at £5.39 for nearly 1 litre, and I purchased it the second time around on a <i>3 for 2 </i>deal at Sainsbury's one day so it was worth it!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a couple of months ago, I posted about the <b>protective style</b> challenge I had set myself, well it lasted about a month in the braids, maybe a bit longer. I decided to switch up the style and a do a long term weave for a couple pf month instead, <b>WHY?</b> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think the main reason was styling choices, I love to wear hats and I have a big head, (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><i>as my mother always tells me, when you were a baby you couldn't hold your own head up it was so big lol!</i></span>) so I find it easier to wear a hat with a weave. I did the weave myself and I was quite pleased with the results.</span><br />

<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Continue this until all the cornrowed braids are loosened.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Give your hair a wash and then follow-up with a protein treatment, the hair if it has been weaved up as long up as mine, will need strengthening again.</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Take your time!</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Do not be alarmed by the hair that sheds, this is a natural process, you have not combed your hair from weeks/months so this is normal!</span></li>

<br />
There are 3 phases to the way our hair grows:<br />

<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">So how do we grow really long hair?</span></b><br />
<br />
It has been said that a persons' 'Anagen phase' is genetic, so the length of time you can grow long hair or that period of which the hair is 'Actively' growing' is determined by genes. Is this true? I would say that is debatable.<br />
<br />

</tbody></table>In truth, 88% of the time all of us are in the Anagen-active' phase of hair growth, but are we seeing that hair growth? Most of us are maybe only seeing 30-40% of hair growth at any one time, this is down to our styling methods, chemicals in our hair products and bad hair practices that stunt our hair growth and lead to breakage.<br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><b>1) Keep your scalp healthy. Keep it cleansed, moisturised and stimulated.</b></span><br />
<br />
how? conditions like dandruff, flakes and an itchy scalp to not aid the hairgrowth cycle. By regularly washing your scalp, oiling it with a natural stimulating scalp oil, I love the scalp hydration serum @ <a href="http://www.root2tip.com/">www.Root2tip.com</a>, and by massaging your scalp deeply, you will be sure to maximise your Anangen-active phase of hair growth.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">2<b>) Retain your ends! - </b></span><br />
<br />
The ends of your hair are the oldest, by holding onto them and keeping them healthy you will see hair GROWTH!<br />
<br />
Keep your hair moisturised daily and pay attention to the TIPS! breaking tips will lead to no real hair length, that is noticeable.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">3) Maintain a healthy diet high in protein!</span></b><br />
<br />
Hair is primarily a strand of protein, so to keep the strands you grow, nourished and healthy from the inside, be sure to eat a diet that includes protein sources: Pumpkins seeds, fish, Tofu, chicken, Soya, beans, pulses to name a few!<br />

</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The quick answer to such questions is; <i>yes, no and yes</i>.

</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">No, I do not get any breakage, I treat my hair the same whether it's in a protective style or out. the same answer in respect of dryness, my hair drinks water, I have to wash my scalp every other day!</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br />

<div></div><b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;">So what is Henna?</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Henna is an all natural dye made from the leaves of the lawsonia henna plant. It has been used since ancient times to color skin (the art of mendi), fiber, and hair. The type of soil in which it is grown affects the intensity and shade of the color, but Henna yields just one type of color: red.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Henna's red color comes from a molecular protein. When Henna is used to color hair, the person is actually <b>bonding a protein coating to their hair</b>, which explains why Henna is the most permanent of dyes.</span><br />

<div></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Protein in hair treatments can lead to the hair feeling stiff and hard when overused, but the hair DOES need protein, especially when damaged. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I usually henna my hair every 8-12 weeks, however depending on your hair type it can be used as frequently as once a month.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Many women who use high-protein hair treatments report that some of the products made their hair feel “dry” or “hard”. This can sometimes be associated with breakage because the hair is more rigid. This is often due to the fact that the women often misuse the products in question. They think that they need a product when they don’t or the product isn’t suited for their hair type.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Do not use too much protein</b>, if your hair is healthy a protein treatment every couple of months is ideal, but it really depends on the health of your hair.</span><br />

<br />
Anyone who knows me, knows how much I want little black girls to love their hair, but the message I try to give, is really aimed at the parents, get your child to watch this video and see how they react...my daughter loves it, we have played it 6 times in 30 minutes already!!<br />
<br />
<br />
<object height="295" style="background-image: url(http://i2.ytimg.com/vi/enpFde5rgmw/hqdefault.jpg);" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/enpFde5rgmw?fs=1&hl=en_GB"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/enpFde5rgmw?fs=1&hl=en_GB" allowscriptaccess="never" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="295" width="480"></embed></object><br />
<br />
I absolutely LOVE this video and its sooooooooo relevant to me right now, Sesame street have taken up my mission to get little black girls to love their own hair, and they even show how its curly and pretty, DOES NOT NEED relaxer and can still be styled, does grow healthily and most of all can be LOVED!! in 98 SECONDS!<br />
<br />
We really need to look at the message we are sending out to our little girls when it comes to a huge part of their identity- <b><span style="color: #274e13;">THEIR NATURAL HAIR!</span></b><br />
<br />
Its too easy to say ' I can't do hair or the hair is too tough or <i><u>it <b><span style="color: red;">DOESN'T GROW!!</span></b> </u></i><br />
<br />
Take the time to invest in your daughters hair for their future, we do not need to see generation upon generation of Little black girls lost in a wave of <i>'</i><b style="color: purple;"><i>WEAVES, WIGS, FAKE HAIR</i>'</b>, even before they have hit puberty!!<br />
<br />
Most kids hate vegetables or green foods, in a child's mind it looks yucky! but if they are conditioned over time, they get used to those vegetables!<br />
<br />
<div style="color: #4c1130; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">3 TOP TIPS to Get your little girl to love her hair!!</span></div><br />
<br />
1) <span style="color: lime;"><b><span style="color: purple;"> Lead by example</span></b>.</span>..ladies if you are always hiding your natural hair, or you never feel the urge to run your fingers through your own hair, maybe because its damaged, thinning, balding, then do something about it and explain to your child that you love your real hair, but you are growing it out! The wig and weave are great styling options and great ways to grow your own hair, but PLEASE do not forsake your own hair, HAIR-LINE, for the sake of the fake hair<br />
<br />
2) <b style="color: purple;"> Take the time to look after your child's hair!</b> Kinky, Coily or curly hair, basically hair that is not straight is never easy to deal with. You know from your own childhood that Afro hair types and textures is no wash and go hair! So with this in mind take a day out to condition, moisturise and style your child's hair so they feel good about themselves. Make it a routine and it will become normal.<br />
<br />
3)<b style="color: purple;"> Say no to the chemicals! Relaxer are not a quick fix!! </b> Countless parents fall for the pretty kiddies relaxer box, designed by unscrupulous marketing machines of MILLION pound companies who take pleasure in producing a caustic chemical that we are happy to apply to a child as young of 2 years old head!!<br />
<br />
Relaxers weaken your child's hair, relaxed hair actually requires more maintenance than Afro hair, so if you think you can apply the relaxer one day and continue to neglect the child's hair routine without causing hair-loss or worse, sorry but you are mistaken!<br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How many times a day do you think about the skin that is home to one of the most significant features of your individual identity- <em>Your Hair</em>, and that <em>home being your scalp</em>- once. twice never?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well your not alone, as the scalp is often the most neglected area of skin on our bodies, some people's scalp only get cleansed once maybe twice a month, some people think that dirt on their scalp that is accumulating under a weave or a wig is actually productive for hair growth?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Unfortunately neither way of thinking or acting is great for <em>growing</em> hair!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">If you never washed or moisturised the skin on your face for weeks or months at a time, how much dirt do you think that skin would accumulate<strong>...eeeeeeeeeeeewwww!</strong> its not even worth thinking about, so why try the skin that is home to your hair any different? </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">After all its still skin isnt it?</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong><u><span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">TLC Tips for your scalp to help your hair grow</span></u></strong>:</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>Cleanse your scalp regularly:</u></span></strong><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Aim to keep your scalp clean and dirt free as much as possible. Any build-up of sweat, grease or dirt will slow down and even stop active hair growth. The roots of the hair need to breathe so help them by cleansing your scalp regularly.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<strong><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">No Poo! cleansing:</span></u></strong><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Your shampoo can sometimes be the greatest irritant to a sensitive scalp, many shop brought shampoos contain <span style="color: red;">Sulphates</span> in them, these harmful ingredients are the cleansing and foamiong agents in your shampoo, howver they are too harsh for hair of afro descent and too harsh for the scalp also.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Use a shampoo that is <span style="color: red;">Sulphate</span> free, try an organic shampoo or try a conditioner to wash the hair and scalp with.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><u><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Conditioner aka - co-washing</span> </u></strong><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I often use a conditioner to wash my hair with- why? Because its far less drying than your average shampoo, and being aperson with afro hair my hair is always dry, so the conditioner helps me to combat the dryness associated with washing your hair, by adding moisture to my hair and cleansing my scalp at the same time.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: lime; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong><u>Nourish your dry thirsty scalp like the plants in your garden!</u></strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If your a keen gardener you will understand that your beloved plants will only flourish and thrive when their soil is moist, the roots are tenderly nourished and stimulated with a fertiliser from time to time and they are not thirsty. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">In short, <em><strong>your soil is your scalp and your plant is your hair!</strong></em> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Of course hair will always grow on your head until the day you die, however the type of hair you will grow is dependant on the <em><strong>nourishment your scalp receives</strong></em>. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><strong><u>Quench my thirst:</u></strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When it comes to my scalp, I only reach out for all things natural, Grease is the devils child in my book, cheap, thick and sticky, it does not penetrate through the skin in the scalp to where nourishment is needed, instead it allows dirt to accumulate and slow down hair growth.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">You can grow weak thin hair prone to breakage due to its home (being neglected and not nourished) or you can <u><em><strong>grow stronger thicker hair</strong></em></u> due to its home being nourished and quenched. </span><br />
<br />

<div></div><br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">ONE OF THE MOST neglected parts of the body is the scalp. We shampoo, condition, and style our tresses constantly but pay little (if any) attention to the skin underneath. </span><br />
<br />
<div></div><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">The scalp is the foundation for beautiful hair: It houses over 130,000 deeply rooted follicles, which keep hair strands shiny and healthy by distributing oils and nutrients from root to tip.

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">So what do you use to hydrate and nourish your scalp to ensure your hair remains healthy, dandruff free, and keeps growing strong and long?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Whatever you use its best to keep it natural!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><em><strong>Mother nature Knows best!</strong></em></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Stay away from hair grease!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Hair grease, although it has probably been a constant feature in your home for as far back as you can remember is not beneficial to any hair or scalp.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><strong>Hair grease:</strong></span><br />
<br />
<ul><li><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><strong><em>Is made from petroleum, an ingredient used in gas or petrol!</em></strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><strong><em>Its not non-comdogenic, meaning it will block the pores of your scalp</em></strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><strong><em>It can stunt hair growth</em></strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><strong><em>Its not natural</em></strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><strong><em>If it was so great why is it that only black people use it?</em></strong></span></li>
<li><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><strong><em>It will not hydrate or nourish your scalp</em></strong></span></li>
</ul><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS;"><strong><em></em></strong></span> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">When it comes down to haircare, especially when you are using a product that will go directly onto your scalp, its best to keep it as natural as possible!</span><br />

Rest your hair whilst wearing a <u><em>Protective style</em></u> (see below)</li><br /><br /><br /><br /><li><strong><u><span style="color:#33cc00;">Pay attention to your scalp!</span></u></strong> <u><em>Healthy hair grows from a healthy clean scalp</em></u>. If your scalp is full of grease, bacteria you cannot see, and dandruff, or is very dry- your hair will not grow properly. <em>Will a rose bush grow in a desert</em><br /><br /><br /></li><br /><br /><li><strong><u>Wash your scalp frequently!</u></strong> forget the myths about hair growing when its dirty! that is nonsense. Your hair will thrive if the scalp is cleaned frequently, but use the righ shampoos and conditioners. aim for at least twice a week, I wash my hair at least 3 times a week, sometimes using only conditioner!! The massage is great for the scalp when washing/rinsing.<br /></li><br /><br /><br /><li><strong><u><span style="color:#ff0000;">Stimulate your scalp to grow hair</span></u></strong> by 5-10 minute daily <em><strong>massaging/scritching</strong> (see below)</em> it with oils. Growth stimulating oils like the <strong><u><a href="http://http//public.fotki.com/salheaven/hairgrowthpack/root-energizer-growth/">Grow-it long serum</a></u></strong>, contain growth stimulating essential oils like rosemary, that increases the blood-flow to the roots on your head. Will a plant grow without water?<br /></li><br /><br /><br /><li><strong><u>Treat your hair like silk!</u></strong> Our hair is very fragile, especially when wet, so avoid combing or brushing it when wet, use your fingers instead. detangle your hair gently, from the bottom up, when its saturated in conditioner<br /></li><br /><br /><li><span style="color:#009900;"><strong><u>Moisturise your hair daily</u></strong></span>- especially the ends of the hair which are the oldest. You need to stop breakage to see your length! Apply a heavier moisturiser to the ends of your hair so they stay strong. Castor oil is great for this!</li><br /><br /><br /><br /><li><strong><u>Excercise for 30 mins at least 3 x a week</u></strong>- to increase the blood flow to your scalp.<br /></li><br /><br /><br /><li><strong><u><span style="color:#ff0000;">Eat/Drink healthily</span></u></strong>...what you put in your mouth can affect how your hair sprouts out!! eat plenty of hair growing veg like, spinach, carrots, protein and drink lots of water.</li><br /><br /><br /><br /><li><strong><u><span style="color:#009900;">Take quality hair, skin and nail vitamins</span></u></strong>, or a good multi-vitamin with minerals, this can really help with your hair growth. You need vits like <strong>B12, C, A, E and Zinc, the mineral Silica and protein L-Cysteine, to really increase hair growth. </strong></li><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><li><strong><u>Wear your hair up!</u></strong> to avoid split ends and dry-ness keep the ends of your hair away from your clothes...your hair cannot handle the friction of brushing against your clothes regularly, its lie asking for them to split and break off.</li><br /><br /><br /><br /><li><u><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">Avoid hair products containing</span></strong></u>, <strong><em>Petroleum, Mineral Oil, SLS</em> in shampoos., and </strong><em><strong>alcohols</strong> </em>in gels and sprays. Use products that use <strong><em>plant botanicals, essential oils</em>, </strong><em><strong>vegetable oils, silk , wheat and vegetable proteins, biotin and panthenol.<br /></strong></em></li><br /><br /><br /><br /><li><strong><u>Be careful when relaxing your hair</u></strong> and especially when re-touching new growth. If your hair is over-processed it will break off like straw. Never go over the old relaxed hair with the relaxer- that is hair virtual <em>hair suicide!!</em><br /></li><br /><br /><br /><li><strong><u><span style="color:#009900;">You are what you <span style="color:#ff0000;">HEAT</span>! </span></u></strong>Avoid using heat on your hair!
